I've been to Joyce meyer meetings held in blore in Jan... (To all of you who donno who she is: She is a Evangelist. There was a prayer meeting and a devotional concert held in blore) She spoke about Feelings nd fogiveness this way... (I will put in few points taht i remember)
>> God wants us to have great relationships... knowing the word of God doest help us... doing it will do great things.. We should not forget that... God is asking us to forgive...
>> Greatest hiderance is our FEELINGS...we rely most on our feelings...some ppl dont do because they dnt feel like doing it...Yea..,because we dont feel like forgiving, or because we dont feel like talking to them... We dont want to forgive... But remember... No matter how you feel...you will never have that peace of mind... "Unless you forgive..."
>> These are the main things that we possess...
1. Spirit.
2. Soul.
3. Body.
We need to learn how to differentiate these...
>> Jesus was standin in front of a lake , nd the fisher man werer ready to go home in depair...They have not been fishing deep in the water. The same way we think that I've prayed but nothing has changed.... I have read bible but nothing has changed... I go to church but nothin has changed... but when Jesus told them to go fishing deep in the water, they got so many fishes that they signaled for others to help them... They dint feel like it.... They did it because God said them to go deep in the water... In the same way... We are suspicious.... judgemental...We dont want to be good... neither do we have the power to change... Stop askin your self how you feel like??? If he tells to forgive somebody then dont get hurt....
>> When we live by faith... thats Deeper LIFE....but when we start Living by feelings---- thats a shell..
>> Live in faith not with emotions.... emotions are like waves.... some times you dont have emotions.... when you need them... and many times when you dont need them, they are there... Emotions can really destroy us...
>> You dont have to be bad to get a bad idea...
>>When u have clutered with unfinised projects....realise that though u dont feel like doing, u need to do it, coz God has some promises in store for u...so say that "I will finish my course with Joy... God gonna give me ideas and dreams..." always learn to finish what you start...
>>Nothing (all you said and done) will be left except God... So put on love... like you put on clothes...choose to love
>> When you get angry... you feel like slapping but you can even choose to tlak and pray for them...its a previlage to choose what to do... live a deeper life than to live by feelings...
>> its wonderfull to feel but you cannot depend on feelins... he wants us to depend on him.... anythin that u depend on other than God will insult him-- thank god that he heard you
>> Some times, you are tormented because ur controlled by ur feelings so dont live by feelings
>> When u forgive you are set free..
>> Jesus dint feel like hanging on the cross... he sweated blood...he prayed for God's will...
